Definitions
- the soil often contains abundant quantities of these elements, but most ofthem may be present in insoluble forms, such as oxides (for instance Fe 2 O 3 ), hydroxides (for instance Fe(OH) 3 ) and carbonates (for instance CaCO 3 and MgCO 3 ), not available for vegetable nutrition since they are found in an insoluble crystalline or amorphous form.
- oxides for instance Fe 2 O 3
- hydroxides for instance Fe(OH) 3
- carbonates for instance CaCO 3 and MgCO 3
- a gaseous phase a liquid phase and a solid phase
- the last one comprises a mineral part and organic materials.
- Organic materials in turn comprise humic substances and non humified substances, and they derive from the contribution and from the transformation of animal and vegetable organic residues.
- Humic substances are of a complex polymeric nature and they possess numerous functional groups, prevalently carboxylic and phenolic; they are very stable over time, difficult for micro-organisms to attack and able to perform a series of agronomic functions maintaining a certain level of fertility in the soil.
- the nutritional functions of humic substances are:
- said indirect nutritional function is considered the more important one to make available different metallic nutritive elements, such as iron, calcium and magnesium.
- Humic substances tend to chelate the metals present in the soil solution, thus preventing their precipitation in the form of oxides, hydroxides or carbonates, unusable because they are in insoluble forms, inaccessible to the roots of the plants. Said chelation, instead, makes the metals available for nutritional processes.
- Fertilisation can essentially be performed in two ways: through the leaves or through the soil. In foliar fertilisation the fertiliser is absorbed through the tissues that coat the outer part of the leaves, so it can only take place with fertilisers whose molecular structure has very small dimensions and this vehicle is used mostly to solve momentary problems of nutritional deficiency. Different is the case of fertilisation through the soil, which is the means that ensures plant nutrition in nature.
- the field of the present invention covers the fertilisation that takes place through the soil, the latter being meant as the natural means to make the fertiliser available to the root apparatus.
- the fertiliser constituted by a common salt, for instance ferrous sulfate (FeSO 4 ) placed in a soil lacking iron, with a neutral-alkaline pH (e.g. pH 7-8) and poor in humic substances, from transforming itself into insoluble products such as oxide, hydroxide and carbonate.
- a common salt for instance ferrous sulfate (FeSO 4 ) placed in a soil lacking iron, with a neutral-alkaline pH (e.g. pH 7-8) and poor in humic substances
- a fertiliser based on meso and micro elements to be used for soil fertilisation should have the following characteristics:
- humic substances corresponds to the characteristics required by an ideal chelating-complexing agent.
- humic substances are in any case the ideal complexing agents for iron and for the other nutritive elements, as is known from the technical literature, for example according to F.J. Stevenson “Humus Chemistry” J.Wiley & Sons Ed. (1982), according to P. Sequi "La sostanza organica nel terreno. Funzioni nutnzionali” L'Italia agricola 113(2):91-112 (1976).
- the structure of the humic substances is not well defined in the part the involves the chelation of metals. It is however known that the humic molecule uses mainly the OHs of the functional groups to be able to complex the metal elements (Stevenson, 1982). According to some authors the structure of the metal-humate complex involves two oxyhydrils, one of them carboxylic and one deriving from another functional group, alcoholic, phenolic or other. As reported by Sequi (1976), the structure of the complex also comprises a phosphate group that in this case has two functions:
- the extraction of the humic substances using a base such as NaOH or KOH takes place through the salification of the humic and fulvic acids in an alkaline environment according to the following reaction: HA-OH + K-OH ⁇ HA-OK + H 2 O where HA-OH is the humic acid.
- the K + can also be replaced with Na + ; the compound that is formed (HA-OK or HA-ONa) is a salt of the humic acid (humate).
- the base alone is not able to salify the humic acid and the extraction of the humic acid complexed with the metal has to take place with the aid of a salt that possesses a chelating agent, such as sodium or potassium pyrophosphate.
- a salt that possesses a chelating agent such as sodium or potassium pyrophosphate.
- the metal would be detached from the humic acid and replaced with the K - , thereby originating a salt of the humic acid, whilst the metal would be complexed by the pyrophosphate originating an insoluble salt which would precipitate ( ).
- the aforesaid reaction is likely to take place only if the complexing agent of the iron has a bonding force weaker than that of the pyrophosphate, but it cannot take place when the organic complexing agent (humic substance in the specific case) has a bonding force stronger than that of the inorganic complexing agent (pyrophosphate).
- the humic substances that are used as raw materials are already in extracted form (for example humic extracts obtained by extraction with KOH of the humic substances from leonardite) and therefore one is faced with potassic salts of organic acids. This is obviously a very complex mixture wherein are present both compounds with low and with high chelating force.
- the productive method constituting the subject of the presence invention comprises the following steps:
- salts of organic compounds are not to be used, since one would not be certain of said chelating/complexing reactions on the part of the humic substances, but one would risk obtaining a mixture of humic substances and of the metal complex, which presents the problems described above.
- a soluble complex is formed between the humic substances, the metal and the pyrophosphate, stable enough to be dehydrated (dehydration must take place immediately after the preparation phase).
- the dehydrated product can be completely redissolved in water and can thus be used for soil fertilisation with the practice of ferti-irrigation.
- the final product has a total iron content, completely bonded to the humic substances, equal to or greater than 3 ⁇ 4% depending on the organic matrix used for the extraction of the humic substances. Using optimal humic extracts, it is possible to obtain an iron humate containing about 4.5% of chelated iron.
- Said titre can turn out to be lower if one uses organic extracts from peats, compost or other organic matrices less humified than leonardite. With some humic extracts from coal dusts a titre was obtained equal to 7% in bonded iron. If metals having different atomic weight and valence from iron are used, it is obvious that the titres in metal complexed with the humic substances will be different. The main reason why in most cases reference is made to iron is that this nutritive element is, without a doubt, the most critical one in meso and microelement nutritional deficiencies.
- the quantities of reactants must be perfectly calibrated in order to avoid adding an excess of metal and thereby causing the precipitation of Fe-pyrophosphate and/or humic substances polymerised around iron.
- the iron humates prepared until now were characterised, at a neutral to alkaline pH value, by a structure similar to the following one:
- the product obtained was subjected on an iron-poor soil, in a controlled environment, to agronomic tests in comparison with other classic chelates (EDDHA-Fe) and the following results were obtained: all horticultural plants tested (cucumbers, strawberries, etc.) yielded sharply better productive results from the quantitative and qualitative point of view when they were fertilised with iron humate, whereas the other classic chelates yielded positive results that were temporary and discontinuous.
- EDDHA-Fe classic chelates
- Example I Numerous variations exist to Example I reported above since the humic extracts can come from different sources and thus can be obtained with a variety of solvents, at different pressures and temperatures, and come from all the organic matrices containing humic substances or the like (e.g. peats, lignites, leonardites, coals, organic manures, compost, sludges, sewage, soil, etc.).
- organic matrices containing humic substances or the like e.g. peats, lignites, leonardites, coals, organic manures, compost, sludges, sewage, soil, etc.
- the method can also be applied to the salts of other metals essential for plant nutrition such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, etc.
- pyrophosphates and metaphosphates can be used, as well as pyrophosphoric and metaphosphoric acid and all organic and inorganic compounds containing phosphorus, provided the reaction is regulated with buffering systems.
- a fruit orchard comprising twenty rows of pear trees suffering from iron and zinc deficiency was fertilised, in groups of four rows, in the first row with a product identical to the one described in Example I, in the second row with a product that was wholly similar, except for the preparation conducted with zinc sulfate instead of iron sulfate, in the third row with a mixture ofthe two previous ones, whilst in the fourth row fertilisation was omitted. Each subsequent group of four rows was fertilised for confirmation according to the same procedures.
- Trees in some rows of an orange orchard planted on highly calcareous and iron-poor soil were alternatively fertilised or not with a product identical to that of Example I, except for the preparation, which had been conducted with sodium metaphosphate instead of potassium pyrophosphate.
- the tests yielded excellent qualitative and quantitative results only in the fertilised trees. The positive results were confirmed for four years after fertilisation.
Abstract
Description
- c) Organic chelates which are characterised by complexing the metal with multiple co-ordination bonds on the part of polyvalent molecules which in this way envelop it protecting it with a configuration which can be depicted as a pincer, or chela. The structure of these compounds is thus such as to offer a sufficient protection to the metal, maintaining it in available form for a sufficiently long time. This means that in theory a contribution of fertiliser through an organic chelate is able to meet the requirement of a cultivation for a sufficiently long time. These types of chelates, however, do not escape from microbic activity and thus undergo a rather rapid degradation, such as not to allow the availability of the metal in the soil through the entire cultivation season. It is therefore possible that in that case the cultivated plants live for a period of the year in a phase of nutritional deficiency, particularly if they are pluriennial species (for instance fruit bearing plants).
- in many cases, mainly because of erroneous stoichiometric computations, the addition of the metal to the humic extract (saline aqueous solution containing the humic substances in solubilised form) led to an immediate flocculation of the extract;
- the chelates based on humic substances prepared until now were in the liquid state, in the form of a solution, but the solubility of the product was very low due to the polymerisation phenomena that took place in a few days: only the complexes of the metals with the fulvic acids (US Patent 4.786.387 and European patent 284.339) could be soluble for the presence of other chelating substances as has been stated above:
- the quantity of metal bonded to the humic substances was always very low and not sufficient to justify the launch on the market of a commercial formulation (Lobartini and Orioli, Plant Soil, 106, 153, 1988);
- the products were not found to be soluble after drying; this highlighted the fact that the presence of the metal had favoured the formation of a closed polymer and hence of a flocculate.
all horticultural plants tested (cucumbers, strawberries, etc.) yielded sharply better productive results from the quantitative and qualitative point of view when they were fertilised with iron humate, whereas the other classic chelates yielded positive results that were temporary and discontinuous.
